To me, this is a weapon, a tool, a symbol of the work it took to achieve my dream of becoming an author and the day-to-day labor it takes to remain one.

To my dog it's a cool stick she stole off my nightstand and took into her crate to gnaw.

Here’s a mock project I created for my portfolio.

I dream of working on interior illustrations for a middle grade series someday 🤞

If someone from publishing is seeing this, please make this (loves-to-draw-everything-silly-and-fun) girl’s dream come true 🥹

Being an author means having the audacity to believe you have something worth saying, the humility to take feedback & rewrite til you say it right, the vulnerability to put a piece of yourself into the world, & the toughness to weather the rejection that comes.
